I feel like @vincentpearce definitely got into a private agreement with Tom

Would you accept 1k mana?

[comment moved to the centralized bribing comment]

pretty please

plEEEAAse

Consider the fact that even if people send you mana to resolve it yes, that mana won't contribute to your account's profit, which will still take a -Ṁ100 hit from it. Surely profit is what really matters, since that's what's on the leaderboard, and it's what supposedly represents your skill at predicting. Plus, now that Leagues is a thing, you could get more mana by being in a higher position in your league anyway, and that's only affected by profits, not manalinks.

@JosephNoonan One could get around that with a derivative market based on how this question will be resolved. Market creator subsidizes the derivative market to provide Torn with profit and a “net zero” prediction record on this topic.

@JohnSmithb9be Fitting actions to words:

@JohnSmithb9be Smart move!

NO bettors can just as easily bribe the market creator, and at a better rate, anyway. I'll throw in a bribe if necessary

@Conflux Will you?

@TomCohen If necessary. I’ve got some time, right?

@Conflux I won’t resolve before the 28th

I'll wire you at least 110 Mana if you resolve the market Yes, plus other yes holders may do the same thing so you'll profit.

@Celene Tempting

@TomCohen I'll do the same actually.

@TomCohen Scrap that, I'll wire you at least 210 of you resolve to YES, probably more later down the line of this market. I'm sure @Celene and other top YES better will follow suit somewhat.

@TomCohen I will send you 50% of my profit from buying YES

Do it

@NinaAssang Sounds like a bad move for me tho

@TomCohen Aren’t you willing to take one for the team?

@NinaAssang (the future team)

@NinaAssang There’s a future team? 😱

@TomCohen No, but there will be.

Resolve it NO
